1P100W #33 – Garlic Granules

If you want to accuse me of being rich and spending more money than necessary unnecessarily, I am now providing you with a nice ammunition.

I bought this canister of garlic granules last weekend, and it was RM 11-ish. The raw garlic required to produce these is probably, 30 cents. So I am overpaying by roughly 4000% to have it crushed, toasted, and put in a glass canister.

The reason I bought this is because I hate having raw garlic smell on my hands. I have not tried adding a teaspoon of these into a stir fry, but this thing totally makes whatever soup rocks!

Hello rich man! What else do you keep inside your kitchen that could make us scream in fits? Heh heh… I would do the same as you for convenience instead of buying raw garlic to peel. I love to eat them raw and my wife would run away for a mile.

McCormick for garlic powder also.. And I see chefs using garlic powder a lot.. Not only that, all kinds of powder, like cumin powder la, onion powder la, dried mint (powder) la, good when marinating meat.. I like garlic powder, sprinkled on top of bread with bread, then bake, sedap, no need chop garlic so mafan..

Oh, very convenient for working people actually and also for those who don’t cook often… As for me, I use lots of garlic when I cook so it will be very expensive for me.. I never smell my hands after chopping up the garlic so I dont really bother.. after all, who wants to smell my hands? hahhaaa..

frankly, when I saw these garlic granules or garlic powder in bottles, I was tempted to get one, haha!! handling raw garlic is troublesome and the smell stays in your fingers for days, no matter how cleanly you wash!!! yucks!!!
